2. Two course credits earned overa  minimum of four semesters in Pomona College music ensembles, e.g. Choir (MUS 031 PO ), Orchestra (MUS 033 PO ), Balinese Gamelan (MUS 041 PO ), etc. Students may fulfill this requirement through repetition of the same ensemble course or through combination of different ensemble courses.

All courses required for the Music minor that are offered for a letter grade should be taken for a letter grade. Students may petition the Music Department for exceptions to this rule. Students are encouraged to consult with the Music Department in advance to determine whether academic work completed on study abroad, at one of the other Claremont Colleges or at another institution, can fulfill the minor requirements.
